Their last offer was in the neighborhood of $6.7 million and most of their players haven't reached free agency.
I will give Hossa credit, he said he would play for a team paying less that was going to win the cup. It will be tough for Detroit to lose 15 games next year.
What if he tears his knee up, or another type on injury like that? He is stupid for not taking a multi-year deal. Or what if he has a horrible year? He'll be 30yrs old next season!
That was a complete d*ck move on Marian Hossa's part. He really blew a bunch of smoke up the Penguins fans a*ses. Now let's see who Shero can get, there still are some good options out there and we can sign them too shorter deals to have more options in the future. I have to agree with Crow and say that I can't see the Jaromir Jagr deal working out. He just isnt the type of player to take a backseat to others and that is exactly what he has to do if he comes here.
